% => Ah, and if you always expect a relay agent to be 
% available at a reserve link local address, anyone 
% can hijack this address. The same goes for any
% reserved address until ND is secured. 
% As for the site-local address for DNS discovery, 
% yes you can install a server on that address, 
% but how do you reach it? Hopefully not anyone 
% can inject a route for it, otherwise we're
% in much deeper trouble than hijacking a DNS
% address.
